Genesee Country Village & Museum is partnering again this winter with Wild Wings Inc. to host the popular Owl Moon night-hike and owl meet and greet experience on Fridays and Saturdays, January 19, 20, 26, and 27.
Visitors to the event will have the opportunity to take a guided night hike with a GCV&M naturalist, meet owls with Wild Wings, hear a reading of the book Owl Moon, and more. Guided hikes will take place from 5 to 7:45 p.m., and the earliest tours are best for those with concerns about visibility, or those who would like to hike in relative daylight. This event will take place in snow or rain – visitors are encouraged to dress for cold weather and wear good walking shoes. Educators from local group Wild Wings Inc. will be on-site in the GCV&M Meeting Center Auditorium with a variety of owl species in their care.
Hearty food and drink will be available in the museum’s Meeting Center Lounge from 4:30 to 8 p.m., and there will be a cash bar available with selections of historical craft beer, rotating hard cider, wine, and soft drinks. Visitors will have the opportunity to shop owl-themed merchandise, village-made goods, museum apparel, and more in the Flint Hill Store.
Tickets must be purchased online in advance, and are available at https://www.gcv.org/event/owl-moon/.
